Kyphosis/Thoracic Outlet Syndrome related - sudden onset pulsatile tinnitus

Posted , 4 users are following.

Hello,

I am an otherwise healthy 33 year old now. I was wondering if anyone here has had some experience with a pulsatile tinnitus (hearing blood flow sound in your ears) with regard to having posture-related issues, thoracic outlet syndrome/kyphosis (forward curvature of the spine). A doctor at UCLA Medical Center for Vascular Surgery diagnosed me with this issue related to Thoracic Outlet Syndrome with MRI/MRA/MRV. Mine began about 8-9 years ago. This doctor also told me the cause of it was the kyphosis. Just shortly after I felt my back change and move forward is when it all started, in addition I have TMJ issues (jaw dysfunction) if anyone here has found a cure for an onset of pulsatile tinnitus related to any of the above issues please let me know what sort of treatment occurred for you, and where you found help.

Thanks!
